Shining Night of Dreams
We are excited to share that Family Connections’ Shining Night of Dreams will take place on Friday, February 27, 2026, from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM at Domenico Winery in San Carlos.
Formerly known as Conexiones, Shining Night of Dreams has been reimagined to create an even more engaging and memorable experience. This year, the program will be limited to thirty minutes of inspiring stories and updates, allowing more time for connection and celebration. Guests will also have the opportunity to participate in interactive activity stations that showcase Family Connections’ work in immersive, meaningful ways.
​
The evening will feature Domenico’s award-winning wines, a signature cocktail and mocktail, coffee, and tea. Guests will enjoy abundant grazing tables, passed appetizers, and a sweet finish with a churro or donut station.
​
Shining Night of Dreams will be a night to gather with friends, celebrate community, and honor the impact Family Connections is making with families across the Bay Area. We look forward to sharing this special evening with you.

We hope you enjoyed our time together as we reflect on Family Connections' journey from a program in a humble, one-bedroom apartment to a multi-site, multi-city program that's about to launch into yet another city: Daly City.
On November 10th, Family Connections hosted our annual Authors’ Night in person at The Carey School in San Mateo from 5:30pm-7:30pm.
